Cannot fault this place! Absolutely lovely stay for a reunion with former university housemates. Deborah is very welcoming and provided lots of special extra touches to make your stay special. Basketball hoop, dogs and guinea pigs all add to the experience. Had a gorgeous walk along the Thames and pub lunch at the trout. The barn is well stocked with games and DVDs. All in all a wonderful weekend! Thanks Deborah!

The Barn was a perfect location for our family of five. Deborah and her family welcomed us with an Easter Egg Hunt which was so special for our youngest child considering we were not able to celebrate while traveling. There were delicious Easter themed treats waiting for us in the house on arrival. The accommodation was spacious and had everything we needed in terms of amenities: washing machine, full kitchen, DVDs, beautiful grounds, plenty of activities for kids. We had a memorable crystal clear night sky that we caught a glimpse of through the skylights, so spent about an hour stargazing away from the city lights. It was breathtaking. The Tesco was a short drive and the village, with shops and restaurants, within walking distance. The central location was perfect for our needs. We took a short day trip to Oxford, and a little longer trip to Stonehenge and Avebury. We truly enjoyed our stay and will highly recommend The Barn to others.

Ons verblijf was fantastisch. Bij aankomst was alles netjes en Deborah had zelf een cake voor ons gebakken. De locatie is centraal om zowel de kleine dorpjes in de Cotswold als steden zoals Oxford of Bath te gaan bezoeken. Verder is een wandeling langs de Thames zeker aan te raden.

So nice house and so sweet service! My family very enjoy the time we spend here! Thanks!

Thank you so much for a beautiful stay. The Christmas decorations and the delicious cake were much appreciated by all. We loved the wonderful inside space and the children loved the outside space (and the dogs). Thank you so much.

Lovely place, very clean, and the village has some great cafes and restaurants. The barn is right next to the main house but this wasn't a problem as Deborah is such a great host!

Gorgeous barn. Perfect for a weekend away with lots of amenities in an idyllic village nearby. Host had thought of everything. Welcome cake on arrival and barn well equipped. Definitely recommend as the perfect base to explore the local area.

A truly delightful stay! After Italy and France our family of of five were travel weary. Arriving at Deborah's accommodation in Lechlade was perfect timing. Deborah was a wonderful host all the way through our booking even though she was in another country at the time of our stay. Her friend oversaw our stay and was warm, friendly and very helpful. We arrived to a beautiful afternoon tea of tea, homemade scones and jam. My son was in sport heaven (very over archaeological sites and museums) - soccer nets, mini tennis, basket ball, futsal table, table tennis, darts and more. My daughter was in animal heaven (missing her own pets) - with the 2 dogs and guinea pigs. We went on lovely bike rides round and about. The accommodation is incredibly beautiful and well equipped. This is a great place for exploring lots of the little towns in the Cotswolds or just staying put.

Lovely little cottage in a really nice village. Perfect for a weekend break as there are a couple of very nice pubs, and a decent butcher, grocery shop and wine shop in the village. Cottage is very sweet and cosy, with a very comfortable bedroom - perfect for a couple! I would definitely stay there again!

We had a great stay at Rays cottage. It is cosy but this adds to its charm. A great base for exploring the Cotswolds.

We found Nanette's information re arrival comprehensive and accurate. The flat was cosy and comfortable and we checked out the local area and watched rugby on the TV. A car trip to Oxford the following day, including a park and ride, enabled us to see lots of this university city.

We had a super stay at Ray's Cottage. Not only is the location fantastic - a great base for exploring the Cotswolds - but the cottage itself is very well appointed and comfortable. It has everything you need and is great value for money. We'd definitely recommend it!

Perfect little country getaway. Well stocked kitchen with everything as described.

Ray's Cottage is in a great position in a delightful town but a bit run down. Definitely good value however.

Great location for visiting the Cotswold. Had a wonderful time at Ray's cottage.

Sweet cosy cottage in a nice quiet town. Nice touches include quaint windows. Like many older places in England there is a bit of damp. Overall a positive stay.

We absolutely loved our stay in this home. We weren't able to meet Clare but she was so helpful throughout our stay and we could tell by their lovely home what a wonderful family they are. It was clean, a great sized home, and in a perfect location. It was a dream for our two boys who loved all the toys and the beautiful backyard. The town of Lechlade is so charming and so close to everything you'd want to see in the Cotswolds. We hope to come back again!

Anita was very helpful recommending places for us to visit, she was very prompt at responding to our enquiries. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed.

Fantastic place to stay it was so close to everything but you will need a car to get round. The hosts were fantastic and gave us helpful tips to get around. A lovely getaway for anyone. I would definitly recommend this cute and quirky place to stay.

Had a lovely long weekend stay at the Nest. Good communication before the stay and Anita also recommended local places to eat and things to do. Lots of information in the cottage as well. Peaceful and quiet location and great base to explore the Cotswolds. Everything was as described. The place was clean and had everything we needed. I would recommend and stay again.

A quiet village home stay, easier if have a car. John welcomed us friendly and give the very details to find the place, a lovely home.

John and anita weee great hosts even providing highchair and cot. And the place was lovely. We really enjoyed the walk from the cottage.

Had a lovely time and would definitely visit again. The location is fantastic the whole of the Cotswolds and the accommodation was perfect. They couldn't have made is more welcome, and we were even offered a free upgrade on arrival. Thank you x

John and Anita were lovely hosts and their place was a perfect jumping off point for our first time in the Cotswolds. Lechlade, the town near by had great brunch and was right on the Thames Path where we could hike for hours. We'd be happy to stay with John and Anita again.

Perfect little cottage for our needs - close to major road links yet peaceful and idyllic location. Cottage worked well with our 6 month old. The whole family slept soundly! Friendly hosts, welcoming and on hand if we needed anything. Definitely would stay again.

Had a wonderful time with friends in a spacious and peaceful surrounding :-)

We had a wonderful time at Peter's house. The house is exactly what it says and the view of the lake was magnificent. Peter was a great host - highly responsive and helpful! Will definitely stay there again!

Peter was extremely efficient in sending us very detailed information on his beautiful house and the surrounding area. He answered queries promptly and the house was immaculate when we arrived. We had a wonderful few days over Easter with the whole family ranging from 15 months to 71 years old! Island Lodge is part of a Philip Starck development - very quiet and private. The swimming pool part of the spa was particularly popular as well as the playground for the children. All in all it was a very interesting, beautiful and fascinating place. The houses surround the different lakes with wonderful birdlife. The canoes were used to look around the lake and the position of Peter's house facing south west gave marvellous light into the house and terrace. The two little girls had the best of both worlds - inside and outside. The staff who work at The Lakes were very kind and helpful. Thanks very much, Peter, for letting us rent your house. All good wishes Penny, Peter and family.

An absolutely beautiful home, with fantastic views, luxury and comfort seemingly on tap! This was an anniversary and birthday treat for my family and they thoroughly enjoyed it. Peter was a great host, responded quickly to enquiries and provided all the essentials we needed. i would thoroughly recommend this to anyone wanting to be enjoy a break away with friends or family.

Island lodge is a great space for both family's and adults. The lodge is so spacious and well equipped its like home from home. Peter operates a very organised rental home and all my queries were dealt with promptly. All other facilities on The lakes are run so very well and the concierge assist greatly in ensuring we had a relaxing weekend. Can't wait to come back.

Peter was excellent throughout the booking process, pre arrival, during and after our stay. All questions were answered extremely promptly and fully. The description of the property and all of its amenities was very accurate even so all 8 of us including two children aged 5 and 8 were still surprised by how well appointed the house was - for example quality toiletries and complementary Nespresso pods. We made full use of everything provided in the house including the Kayaks. The ambience of and facilities in the location was also above our expectations. Our 5 year old had only 1 complaint - the chickens had not laid eggs when he went looking. Although Spa/Pool/Gym entry hours are restricted from 14:00-17:00 we made good use of these too and the children's playground was a hit with both boys. We were 30 mins late arriving and so our grocery delivery arrived before us. A member of staff dealt with this for us providing exceptional service in that she not only took delivery for us but also unpacked and stored everything for us. This was most definitely a wonderful week's holiday All of our party said they would like to return.

As a returning guest, as always, Peter's place is perfect for what I wanted and Peter is a charming and helpful host. I will continue to return.

This was our second stay at Lakes By Yoo and our first at Island Lodge- we definitely plan on returning. Ideal location for families or groups!

Fantastic place, really enjoyed escaping from London for the weekend for a moment of relaxation. Lake front, fireplace, modern and spacious. Finishing to a high spec, all basic amenities provided. Look forward to staying again one day! Thanks Peter!

The host canceled this reservation 193 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

The booking with the owner has been fairly straightforward and easy. Here's some feedback: Communication - Once established communication with Anna via (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN), it was quick and straightforward; Location - Nice and quiet location. Has not gone into peak summer season and thus is a nice place to chill. Access to food and village store is just a short drive away; Facility - Nice and well-furnished. Have everything you would have expected of a self-catering unit. The stash of toys is heaven to my children! A pity the unit is showing it's age. Eg. the japanese bath-tube is dirty and no one knows how to fill it up. The outdoor day-bed and chair are also without the cushions. The jetty for boat access is also not serviceable; they do have a old boat too. Otherwise, the stay would have being a blast! The ground floor toilet broke down after 1st night.. water just kept flowing out. Not a problem because it does keep the toilet clean. Cleanliness - The place is tidy and clean. Linens are clean too. Hiccups - WIFI was the main thing. Took a while to get the log-in sorted out. Not the most stable we have had before but we do get by.

We had a lovely time in the house. It was very clean, had a well equipped kitchen and fantastic view of the lake. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms sparkling. Even when we left something behind it was sent to us within a couple of days of us letting the host know. We are hoping for a return visit!

Beautiful location. Highly recommend this property. Good for walking and cycling around the lakes. Not far from Lechlade, to pick up any vital supplies. The property was clean and spacious.

Our stay at the Lakes was awesome. We all had a great time and hope to be back soon. Thanks.

We have been to the Lakes by Yoo many times and stayed in different properties. The house is lovely and spacious with incredible views over the lake. Its worth noting that all of the mattresses are memory foam. Elena was very responsive from the outset and is a great host. If wifi is essential it's worth mentioning from the outset to ensure it's set up on arrival. Once the router was switched on we had no issues. We were allowed to check in early as there were no prior guests which was excellent for us. linens were very comfortable and towels were the highest quality. Thank you!

Immaculately presented, stylish house. All kitchen, dining and bathroom stuff is provided, so you don't have take much, if anything. Elena was well organised and very informative.

Jeff's house was the perfect place for a luxurious and relaxing weekend. The house was beautifully curated and and the garden even more stunning, I would definitely recommend to all my friends!

Jeff's retreat is the highlight of our UK trip. It was such an experience staying there! It is the perfect house with fantastic interior design, museum quality decorative that showcase the impeccable taste of the owner. We've had such a great time staying there. It's worth a trip just to visit the house! We hope to return again some day!

Comfortable place. Very spacious and well stocked with supplies. Very scenic area. Thank you Jeff

We had a fantastic stay, the location and the property were stunning. The rooms were made up beautifully and it felt more like staying in a boutique hotel than an air b n b property. I would return for another visit in an instant.

Beautiful house, every detail thoughtfully provided..we loved it!!

Spent a family weekend here for my brothers 30th and it was incredible. If you think the pictures are good - wait until you see the house for yourself! It really is stunning and has a luxury hotel feel in the comfort of a country home. The house is fully equipped with everything you could possibly need (except milk when we arrived) and all of the little details in every room go above and beyond. Jeff was a great host and responded to any of my queries quickly and sorted an early arrival even though he was away in Asia. We had a great time making home made pizzas in the wood fire pizza oven on the first night and the next evening we set up a big family dinner at the garden table. This was followed with 'a few' drinks at the Tiki bar area in front of the fire which rounded off the celebrations nicely! The one negative for the men of the family was that they couldn't get the projector screen to work with the instructions but I'm sure if Jeff was on hand it would have been sorted. A weekend without TV was personally refreshing! Thanks for making our family weekend feel like a once in a lifetime experience.

Amazing house for a summer weekend in the Cotswolds. Very secluded, the house had everything we needed and we felt right at home.

What a fantastic place. We shared a very happy weekend with friends in this idyllic house and gardens. Jeff is a great host with excellent taste.

Great spot and really nice house. Everything was easy.

We are a group of 8 and so we booked this amazing 4-bed lake house for a weekend break. This is a beautiful home, decorated in high standard, has breathtaking lake view. Lots of activities can do, we did kayaking , bbq, basketball , swimming, keep us busy. All of us enjoyed the stay. And definitely will go back.

We had a very warm welcome by a gentlemen who waited for our arrival and took us though the house and its details. Everything was accurate and corresponded with the description, sometimes exceeding the description. Th e host was also flexible to accommodate the children's beds to our desire. Excellent experience

A lovely place to spend a weekend. Beautiful house with everything you could possibly need. The complex has lots of great amenities especially for families- pool, trampoline, football, tennis and two local villages within easy reach.

We had a really lovely week in this house. It is beautifully situated in a stunning location and the spa is a great facility to have access to. The house itself is very well furnished and makes your stay a luxury one!

We had a lovely stay at The Loft. The initial heating problem was resolved promptly by John and we couldn't have been happier. John and Anita were very helpful recommending the local restaurants/pubs. We had fantastic dinners at The Five Alls and Plough Inn. The location is off the main road and we felt it was very quiet. The facilities were great and we had a plenty of space! We loved the loft bedroom which was cosy and comfortable. We would definitely come back!

John & Anita were warm and welcoming hosts who really made us feel welcome. The photos don't do this place justice, quirky, artsy & with a fantastically comfy bed. Perfect getaway!

Anita and John made us feel so welcome and made it so so easy to find!!! The loft is so spacious and beautiful!!! Me and my fiancé had the loveliest chill out! The only thing I could say needs updating are the taps and the sofa but would stay here again for sure!!!! Thanks for a lovely stay!!! X

had a very nice time, thanks very much

A perfect stay in a spacious and lovely property. This place has everything you need for a nice escape/getaway. We stayed over New Year and had a great break - Thanks!

Very spacious lovely cottage, with good information on the local area for walks and pubs :) The village and surrounding villages are very cute!

Really beautiful place to stay, with such nice decorations and little touches that made it really homely. Very easy to arrive and leave and John and Anita were so prompt in sending me the info we needed. Would absolutely some again.

Absolutely fantastic space, really loved the loft, John & Anita were really welcoming. It was nice and close for the Royal International Air Tattoo and Lechlade which had plenty of places to eat.

Excellent hosts.

A particularly beautiful home and setting that we would highly recommend in winter or summer. We had an unusually sunny and mild day (in Feb) and were able to make good use of the decking. The views of the lake are lovely and the log fire was put to good use in the evenings. The decor is more 5 star hotel than our usual Airbnb experiences which I think will appeal to most. It was perfect for our party of 10 adults (old friends so a few didn't mind sharing a room) and a couple of under 2 children. The Spa is great although disappointingly only available 2-5pm for us renters (most of the homes on the lake are owned). Mark was a great host, always available via phone and email - Thanks again Mark for a wonderful stay!

beautiful house, exceptional area & village, British country side at its best.

Enjoyed a great bank holiday weekend at the property! The space is exactly as depicted!

A beautiful cottage in a stunning location. Lots of walks directly from the front door as well as a gorgeous pub serving delicious food a 10 minute walk away over the fields! Friendly and helpful hosts who were there if needed but left us to it.

A loverly cottage in a quiet secluded location, perfect for a relaxing time away. Local pub a 15 walk away and plenty great pubs and restaurants a 10 mixture drive away. Host Rachel very contactable and very accommodating with our late arrive, was also kind enough to light a fire go us prior to our arrival so we arrived into a nice warm house.

Apple Tree Cottage is a warm and cosy two bed traditional Cotswolds Cottage. The fit-out of the property is impressive and as one would expect from a high-end hotel. The ground floor provides a very well equipped modern kitchen with comfy living room and dining area. The first floor provides two huge double bedrooms with equally as extensive bathrooms. Large, walk in, showers are present to both bathrooms. Two separate baths are also present to the first floor, one located within a bathroom and a separate stand-alone bath within the main bedroom. The property is well equipped with modern facilities including underfloor heating to the bathrooms and kitchen/living room area, high powered showers, modern kitchen fittings and three smart televisions including sonos sound systems. Located in the centre of Southrop it is very handy for the Swan pub and for exploring the wider Cotswolds countryside. The owner (Ruth) was very helpful prior to arrival and even provided a welcome pack including local bread, milk, eggs and bacon but otherwise left us to it. Would highly recommend for a quiet break!

We felt welcome at Apple Tree Cottage before we had even arrived. Ruth's description of how to find the cottage and how to access the key was accurate and helpful. The cottage was as described and exceeded our expectations. Loved the relaxing atmosphere in the cottage and the little touches of luxury (and the fantastic showers!) made our weekend stay thoroughly enjoyable.

On a par, if not better than the Wild Rabbit. We throughly enjoyed the stay, helped by the nearness of the pub. Good location, accurate description of the property and extremely well kitted out, including all the various consumables. A pleasure to stay

Absolutely beautiful place- stunning decoration and truly felt like a touch of luxury throughout. The decor and little finishing touches all hung together perfectly. Extremely well located to enjoy the Cotswolds and based in the beautiful little village which a delight in itself. The amazing arrival touches like fresh bread, eggs, bacon and milk were really just the icing on the cake. Would definitely stay again.

A beautifully presented cottage in a quintessential Cotswold village. Great location in the middle of the village, a stones throw from the pub. Ruth sent us lots of useful information about the area prior to our arrival. Access was easy, even though we arrived late from London on a Friday night. A welcome breakfast in the fridge - eggs, bacon, milk and fresh bread. Very much appreciated. Perfect for a weekend getaway. Would recommend.

A lovely cottage perfect for a small family or two couples - amazing bedrooms and touches of luxury!

The Plough Inn is a beautiful pub in the middle of the countryside, very peaceful spot and a great sun trap! The rooms were well appointed and breakfast room was also in a very attractive setting. Good location for walks along the river and escaping the city.

We had a great stay at the Plough Inn; clean and attractive room, good atmosphere in the pub and good food during dinner and breakfast. Also a perfect place to stay for exploring the Cotswolds.

Great reception by the staff. Good selection of "real" ales. The room was extremely comfortable with a lovely decor and a very comfortable bed. The shower was very effective. Eating in the evening was a pleasure. We would recommend it to anyone and we intend to go back there

Lovely house. Lovely location. Lovely host. Well worth staying.

Great state, lovely cottage in a beautiful position. Very well appointed. Great for a family with large super King room and sweet twin room. We only stayed a night but would happily return for a longer weekend stay. Useful breakfast provisions provided. Helpful and efficient with check in and out.

We had a fantastic stay in Southrop. The cottage is in a beautiful location in a small village in the Cotswolds. Inside it has been really well decorated with everything you could need provided. The local pub is only a couple of minutes walk away and there are great walks to do in the countryside. We would definitely come back!

The pictures don't do the place justice. Truly a magnificent setting and just a lovely little cottage. Highly recommended for relaxing weekend away from it all.

After a few busy days in Leicester and Oxford, Southrop was the perfect retreat. The cottage was lovely, it had everything we needed and we felt very welcome. We were looked after by Lucy and Docki both were really helpful. Docki showed us around and pointed out some possibilities for walks and arranged for my daughter to play tennis. The Swan Inn which is very close to the cottage provided us with a lovely dinner. I wish we had stayed more than one night.

A lovely cottage, perfect location in a delightful village, surrounded by countryside. Don't hesitate to book.

Fantastic! The perfect weekend getaway. Beautiful cottage in beautiful village with wonderful host. Will definitely be back!

Beautiful house and location. Perfect! 10/10
